I have baseboard heaters. What is the clearance beneath the drawers/back legs at the back of the unit? Are the back legs flush to the wall?

It has the ability to be flush at the bottom, but you can also pull it away from the wall. The unit does not require it to actually lean up against the wall.

There are no legs in the back. The drawers sit about 4" above the floor and must rest against the wall.Hope this helps.

there are no back legs, but there is about a 5 inch length board in the back middle that would probably cover up your heater. However it is not the entire length of the bookshelf. And there is about 3 to 4 inches of clearance from the floor to the bottom shelf. I do not have mine flush against the wall.I hope this helps you.

Hi,1/2" clearance is not enough and you need at least 3 1/4" space from the wall. Thank you

It does not sit flush against the wall. There is a little space, which allows for the depth of a sink. And while my wall of tile goes all the way to the floor, the height of the legs, before the body of the vanity, should also allow for the baseboard. Hope this helps!

I'm not a professional electrician, but I don't see a practical reason why it couldn't be installed sideways. However,everything I do, I do to code. So if you have space issues, you might be in violation of code spacing from unit to floor, unit to side wall and/or unit to door/trim/framing etc. Some codes may seem silly. To me, codes for a heater for safety clearance seem reasonable.

Unit is 5 and 3/4 inches deep. Back is flat and even throughout. Only bottom shelf sticks out to the 7 and a quarter inches.

Pretty close. I've had clothes right beside it, in front of it. I wouldn't put your bed right beside it blocking the entire thing tho. The heater is pretty long. A safe clearance for a bed (as long as their is adequate air circulation around the unit) is probably 4 feet, I would guess but I'm not an expert. It is radiant heat so the unit is safer than a regular one. Doesn't get insanely hot to the touch. With the radiant heat, That also means you should turn it on 20 min or so before going to that room to give it time to heat the air.

Yeah I measure 2" from the wall including my wall plate. There is a slight gap and the unit is about 1-5/8". I took a picture but don't know where to post it.

only clearance requirement is front. Sides and back cool, as blower shoots heat out front. this is the least clearance requirement heater i have ever had

The Fahrenheat baseboard heaters are uniformly 2.9" (2-7/8") deep (or thick) and 8.4" (8-3/8") high (or tall). The length or width varies with the wattage; I have 1500-watt units that are 70" long. Go to the Lowe's website to get trustworthy length/width measurements.

The one back close wall is two inch from floor. The two of side is four inch from floor. Is it helpful?

The unit bolts right to the wall. It has some spacers to provide clearance. I bought mine for my garage so I can work out there in the winter. It works great for me and is much cheaper to operate than the kerosene heater I used to use.

there is about 4 inches of space between the bottom of the heater and the floor. I have not noticed the floor heating up at all if that is the concern. I am not sure what the material of the outer casing is.

Yes, the measurements are correct. You should have 1/2" clearance on the sides and top and approx. 2" at the bottom.

15" + 1/4". But my house has a bottom rail along the walls (3/4" thick), so the cabinet cannot be completely be (flush) against the wall, thus my real measurement: 16" from wall (back corner of cabinet) to side of cabinet

The sides and back go completely down to the shelf. There is not any open space between the unit and the shelf

Just measured mine. You are correct, there is a extension that goes out side the wall that's almost 2 inches. You will need 3 3/4 inches in depth. You are close enough that you may be able to use this unit by installing it with the 3 1/2 depth you have and using some white caulk around the edges for the 1/4 inch space you may have, other wise you may need to find a diff product.

Not a lot of clearance but you can fit a plastic under the bed style storage container or 2 on each side; that is in my vacation home so I can't measure the actual distance from the floor to the bottom of the bed this time
